    Walter thank you for the short version of the reset diet ? I will try it!
    I went to my appointment with my surgeon yesterday for my one year post op appointment and he said that at my current weight, I have far exceeded his expectations, and he showed me a bunch of numbers!
    He said if I want to lose 10 more pounds, he can give me phentermine for a short time and referred me to a nutritionist. So I started the medication today! I exercise rigorously so I know it's that I'm eating more than I should and stop eating anything bad for me. Sometimes I think my whole hunger is back. Then I start tripping and thinking the doctor didn't make my stomach small enough, because he hadn't made the pouch small enough for another patient and she wasn't losing much, even though she was following the program. So she got and endoscopy done at another surgeon's office and sure enough, the pouch is not that small at all! So she is having the surgery redone, but the bummer is that the metabolic change that causes the initial massive weight loss can not be redone. She is having to do a bypass now!
    The doctor also said that carbs cause your blood sugar to spike and then you experience a crash which causes you to crave more carbs.
    It was a very good visit overall. I felt much better than I did when I went in!

    I am also 13 months out and have gained back 5 lbs! I'm petrified! I saw my doctor today and he suggested that I see a nutritionist and stay away from carbs as much as possible! Plus gave me a prescription to help aid me in reducing my appetite. I'm soooo drawn to eating lately! I don't know why all of a sudden I got the constant yearning to eat again? I'm not overeating though I still only have a little bite of something, but I have too many little bites in one day! lol

    Here is the link I used in case anyone else is curious. I can honestly say I have felt my restriction tighten since starting.

    @tnks2hp
    I can relate 100 percent.
    I have been craving bread, bagels, rolls, donuts, cookies and all kinds of other weird shit. I was not eating large portions just many small portions of bad items throughout the day.

    Sleeve Reset diet can easily be found via google. Too much to type here.
    Essentially 2 days of clears
    2 days of fulls
    Then fulls and soft foods
    You get the idea.
